Gedit-3.32 needs git

meson.build:51:2: ERROR: Program or command 'git' not found or not executable.

I'm not sure this is appropriate in gedit.  The offending code is:

# Subprojects
if not get_option('buildtype').contains('plain')
run_command('git', '-C', meson.source_root(), 'submodule', 'update', '--init', '--recursive')
endif

but there is no .git file so the command probably is meaningless. I do have git installed, but there is no indication that git is run in my log and there is no .git anywhere in my build tree. Renaming git does generate the error above.

Better to s/plain/release/ in meson.build

Tested OK.
